solving the problem of scheduling unrelated parallel machines with limited access to jobs
Authors
abstract
nowadays, by successful application of on time production concept in other concepts like production management and storage, the need to complete the processing of jobs in their delivery time is considered a key issue in industrial environments. unrelated parallel machines scheduling is a general mood of classic problems of parallel machines. in some of the applications of unrelated parallel machines scheduling, when machines have different technological levels and are not necessarily able to process each one of the existing jobs in the group of jobs and in many of the industrial environments, a sequence dependent setup time takes place during exchanging jobs on the machines. in this research, the unrelated parallel machines scheduling problem has been studied considering the limitations of sequence dependent setup time of processing of jobs and limited accessibility to machines and jobs with the purpose of minimizing the total weighting lateness and earliness times. an integer scheduling model is proposed for this problem. also, a meta-heuristically combined method consisting of genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm for its solutions is proposed. the obtained results of the proposed algorithm show that the proposed algorithm is very efficient especially in problems with large dimensions.

full textFlexible flowshop scheduling with equal number of unrelated parallel machines
This article addresses a multi-stage flowshop scheduling problem with equal number of unrelated parallel machines. The objective is to minimize the makespan for a given set of jobs in the system. This problem class is NP-hard in the strong sense, so a hybrid heuristic method for sequencing and then allocating operations of jobs to machines is developed. A number of test problems are randomly ge...
full textHeuristic approach to solve hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with unrelated parallel machines
In hybrid flow shop scheduling problem (HFS) with unrelated parallel machines, a set of n jobs are processed on k machines. A mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for the HFS scheduling problems with unrelated parallel machines has been proposed to minimize the maximum completion time (makespan). Since the problem is shown to be NP-complete, it is necessary to use heuristic methods to ...

In this paper we study two generalizations of the well known unrelated parallel machines scheduling problem under makespan (Cmax) minimization. First, a situation in which not every available parallel machine should be used and it is desirable to employ only a subset of the parallel machines. This is referred to as “Not all Machines” or NAM in short. This environment applies frequently in produ...
full textSolving a New Multi-objective Unrelated Parallel Machines Scheduling Problem by Hybrid Teaching-learning Based Optimization
This paper considers a scheduling problem of a set of independent jobs on unrelated parallel machines (UPMs) that minimizesthe maximum completion time (i.e., makespan or ), maximum earliness ( ), and maximum tardiness ( ) simultaneously. Jobs have non-identical due dates, sequence-dependent setup times and machine-dependentprocessing times. A multi-objective mixed-integer linear programmi...
